Does Anyone Drink With COPD ?
I have a vodka and tonic or juice about 1 or 2 twice a month! I have never noticed it bothering my breathing or me!
Recently I'm Experiencing Dark Brown Urine And Green Focus. Can Anybody Clarify Or Had This Happen To Them?
Thank you
Has Anyone Been Through A Lung Transplant?
I didn't think of that and I hope you're right. Thanks @A MyCOPDTeam Member.

Part Of My Continual Feeling Of Fatigue Is Grogginess, Making Me Zombie-like. Anyone Similar?
Too tired/groggy to think , converse, or exercise. Just want to nap. But naps don't refresh much.
Caffeine or vitamins don't pep me up. I assume essential cause is insufficient oxygenated blood
to my brain. Anyone have any suggestions (besides exercise)? The zombie feeling is like your battery is
only operating at about 10%. I'd cry...but don't have the energy.
Caffeine is bad for your lungs. Try taking Vitamin B-12 to help get oxygen into your blood stream; 5000 mg.
I'm Trying To Figure Out Humidifiers.
I'm wondering if any of you use humidifiers or de-humidifers. I know one is for summer and one for winter. I think right now for winter I need a humidifier. Something to buffer against the indoor dry heat. Do I have that right?

I live in Florida where there’s plenty of humidity in the air. Can’t imagine wanting to add moisture unless you live in a very dry area.
